In fact, he began to imagine that he was becoming possessed of the vision of the cat. Dark as it was in the room, Dave began to feel certain that he could distinguish plainly the ghostly figure of the saving doughface in the alcove opposite. Twelve o'clock struck. Then more waiting. It was not so very long, this time, however, before there came a faint tapping at the window.
They spent the money they did not earn like princes; they held their heads high; they trampled upon the Abolitionist in his lair; they received the homage of the doughface in his home. They came up here from their rice-swamps and cotton-fields, and bullied the whole busy civilization of the North.
"Dan didn't say a word to me about going anywhere, but " "You think, leave being impossible, Danny has Frenched it over the wall?" demanded Farley. "That's just what I'm afraid of," returned Dave. "But why " "I don't know any reason." "Then " "Farl", broke in Dave hurriedly, almost fiercely, "has anyone a doughface?" "Yes." "Who has it?" "I don't know." "Find it -on the jump!" "But "
But she never looked at me. And that handsome man only ruffles his curls and smirks and prances like a lady-killer at my side. "'What do you think of her, Judson? asks Fergus, with an air. "'This much, says I. 'She is to be Mrs. Judson Tate. I am no man to play tricks on a friend. So take your warning. "I thought Fergus would die laughing. "'Well, well, well, said he, 'you old doughface!

He could report unconcernedly just before taps. "No doughface need apply to-night," chuckled Dan. "But Davy was surely one awfully good fellow to get me through that other scrape as he did."
Traitors flaunt and boast openly in the border States, and publicly scheme with their doughface allies, to defeat the Union cause in every possible way, too often with signal success.
We of the same continent recognize no right in a very few millions to seize on the land which belongs as much to our descendants and to the labor of all Europe and of the world as it does to them. They have no right to exclude white labor by slaves. A Doughface press may cry, Compromise; and try to restore the status quo ante bellum, but all in vain.
The explosion of the tungsten bulb was too great a puzzle for either officer to solve. A man was sent with a new bulb, and so that part of the affair became almost at once forgotten. Dan finally fell into a genuine sleep, and so did Dave Darrin. In the morning Dave sought out Midshipman Farley to inquire to whom the doughface should be returned.

Such are the views of one who seems to know what a real Southern-sympathizing secessionist is made of. Let it not be forgotten that there are thousands of native Tennesseeans, as of other borderers of intelligence, character, and influence, who have offered to raise regiments to fight for the Union; and this fact is urged by the doughface democrats as a reason for increased leniency to traitors.
